Chapter 66: Doubts and Trust

Xuan Cheng cast a fleeting glance toward her parents, and this time, the weight of her long-held resentments was unmistakably visible. Her father clenched his teeth in a silent display of his own unresolved emotions.

Beside him, Madam Xuan's flabbergasted expression underwent a transformation, as Xuan Cheng keenly observed jealousy taking root within her mother's demeanor.

In that poignant moment, Xuan Cheng, who possessed a keen insight into human emotions, could sense the shifting aura in the room. It was as though an unspoken tension had settled over them.

She couldn't help but wonder about the exact cause of her mother's peculiar reaction. If only her jade eyes weren't constrained by the silver memory wall, she might have discerned the precise reason.

Madam Xuan's composure appeared fragile, as if she were on the brink of tears. A single word from Xuan Cheng could potentially tip the balance, causing her mother to break into sobs.
